Coffee Peach Crisp

Categories Recipes2 Comments on Coffee Peach Crisp

Perfect for summer, this Coffee Peach Crisp is the ultimate light cookout treat!  Covered with vanilla or coffee ice cream: a must!  The topping is buttery with a rich coffee undertone, and the warm peach filling adds a fruity freshness.

If feeding a crowd and using a larger baking dish, the ingredients could easily be doubled!

This Coffee Peach Crisp recipe was originally created in collaboration with The Bean Coffee Company for Instagram! Visit my page to check out the video tutorial!

Servings: 6

Ingredients:

FILLING

  • 3 15-oz Cans Peaches
  • 3 Tbsp Sugar
  • 2 Tsps Saigon Cinnamon
  • 1/4 Tsp Nutmeg
  • 1 Tsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 Tsp Brewed Coffee

TOPPING

  • 1 Cup Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/2 Cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 Cup Light Brown Sugar, lightly/loosely packed
  • 1 Tbsp Coffee Grounds
  • 1/4 Tsp Sea Salt
  • 10 Tbsp Unsalted Butter, room temperature, cubed

TO SERVE

  • Vanilla Or Coffee Ice Cream
  • Optional – Decorative Coffee Bean Garnish

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375º and grease a 9-inch baking dish with butter

Drain the peaches and add them into a large bowl, making sure to remove excess liquid to avoid a soggy filling

Add in the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and brewed coffee, and toss until evenly coated

Add the filling to the baking dish, again making sure not to transfer excess liquid, and set aside

In a second large bowl, mix the oats, flour, brown sugar, coffee grounds, and salt together

Mix in the cubed butter until thoroughly mixed and crumbly, then add it on top of the filling

Bake for 43 min – The top will be golden and the fruit will be bubbling along the edges

Serve warm with ice cream on top

Enjoy!

Carob Frozen Yogurt

Categories RecipesLeave a Comment on Carob Frozen Yogurt

Made with 5 ingredients!

On weekends like this past one, where temperatures were over 100 degrees, you need an abundance of cold treats on hand.  I’m a huge frozen yogurt fan, but usually not a fan of the options available at my local stores.  They often contain a lot of gums which are difficult for someone with a sensitive digestion system.  The solution: 5 Ingredient Carob Frozen Yogurt!  

There is no ice cream maker required.  The prep only takes about 5 minutes!

Recipe makes about 2 servings

Ingredients: 

2 cups nonfat plain greek yogurt 

1/4 cup roasted carob powder (I use Australian Carob Company)

1/3 cup coconut sugar

around 3/4 of a small avocado

2 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

Blend up all of your ingredients in a food processor until smooth

Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe pan (around 9×9) and spread evenly

Cover with plastic wrap

Freeze for 1 hour

Remove from the freezer and evenly stir with a fork

Repeat for 3 additional hours

Let freeze for an additional couple of hours for a more solid consistency

Enjoy!
